Target was not the power plant but fighters in adjoining buildings. The electricity problems have 3 causes : 1) they attacked the Egyptian state, which has mostly cut them off (Hamas and the muslim brotherhood are somewhere between one organisation and allies) [1] 2) they launch rockets into Israel, one fell on the power line that supplies Gaza [2] 3) Hamas decided to stage a battle right next to one remaining source of power. The power plant itself was not a target and is not that badly damaged.
